Autumn Advencha Numbah Two, Chapter Two
After leaving the covered bridge, we decided to head back home; of course, when we saw these pīpī, I had to have Nolemana take a photo of them for AFK. I did moo at them for her, too. Red Angus for a change.
Autumn Advencha Numbah One. Chapter One.

Today’s post is a little different; Nolemana and I went on a field trip to Silverton to see a covered bridge we’d never seen before. I wanted to go on some autumn holoholo before winter came.

Beautiful ʻānuenue over our neighbors’ house today. Looking makai/west, where I rarely see them. What a treat this way this morning!

Nothing like being behind. Will I ever catch up before December 31st?
I got this video of him.
Daily hummingbird.
Except for early yesterday morning, we hadn’t seen the new calf for two days and were getting a little worried. So I called Jake and he and Sarah came over. Bessie came down from the hill, and we suspected that she’d stashed the calf up in the forest, since that was where I’d last seen her. So Jake and Sarah drove their SUV up in that direction.
Sarah stayed with the pickup up in the forest for a bit and Jake walked across the pasture to the brush and then Sarah drove the pickup back down again. Jake has a construction company and works hard in all kinds of dirty machinery during the days; we were grateful that he’d come over from work, tired and in work clothes, to look for the calf in places where we couldn’t get to. Bessie had gone back up into the brush directly up from the gate, and we all saw her go into the brush; at that point, we knew that was where she’d stashed her baby.
So Jake came back down and got a bunch of treats and put them in the cows’ separate treat feeders. Then he called for Bessie and shook the feeders, and guess what! Down she came with the calf!
Ho da kewt!!!
Thirteen years ago! I can hardly believe that our second trip to Montana was that much time ago. I wish time wouldn’t go by so incredibly fast. But anyway….here we are, on the final leg of of journey, makai to home.
We’d just passed the exit for Pendleton, and were heading directly makai on Interstate 84. The sky was an interesting mix of dark clouds, light clouds, and blue skies.
